Interesting strategy I saw the other day. Essentially, there was a company that resold a specific type of item that only the carry. As well, they own multiple businesses where while the items they sell in the store are similar, they are all owned by the same parent company. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s almost like a false sense of choice when it comes to having a choice on who to shop with.<\/p>\n
Anyhow, what they would do is mark up one item so ridiculously high in one store where people will think it is such a great deal in the other. For the most part it seems to work too in generating sales. You can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t exactly compare it too well to determine value from a regular consumer point of view since no one else carries the product.<\/p>\n
This method kind of requires you to have a lot of resources to pull off too. I know one company that operates about five different divisions all for the sake of creating what looks like competitors. Sure enough they are one of the biggest companies in town too. In some ways it seems so wrong yet semi clever at the same time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
